The struggle is real. But like literally. It’s a wetsuit. Hearing by up for my 1k wetsuit swim tonight which is the swim distance for the Ironmaori distance I’m doing. This is a gear check session and so far we’re winning because there’s always a fear the gear won’t fit and a wetsuit (or tri suit) isn’t a “run to the shops and buy a new one” purchase.

Step one was putting on the wetsuit. Still fits. ✅ step two is make it to the pool and battle family swim night.

Love your humor! Tip - don’t ask. Just act like you own the place and do it! How’d it go?

If I were home, I’d offer my elite can opener services from the deck of the pool at the Y to make the training more real.

Step 3 - float like a boss. So you know the trick to getting off easier just before you exit swim to transition?
